When you are in the airport and you badly need a pass time during the waiting game, reading is one of your best options. Too bad all of my freshly-bought books were inside my locked bag and I was badly itching to read. Good thing my cousin, Mimi, had a few selection on hand. Seeing this cute print of Pusheen on the cover, I cannot pass up on the chance. Aside from being the famous cute cat taking over social media and our favorite sticker on Facebook, Pusheen also has her backstory.

In this book, you will know more about her and you can even relate to some of the things she loves to do. The humor is also adorable and entertaining enough for me. If you are a sucker for anything kawaii (かわいい), then I Am Pusheen the Cat is a good, short read for you. It's also a light book to read in between heavy novels. Treat it as a break from all your 300+ page usuals.
